Hi , i’m a 21 yrs girl that just moved from my home country to USA . Haven’t enter university or college before( my family situation and the pandemic ) . I have my first part-time job as a boba barista only for 1 month before i relocated to another state . Right now i’m still in training as a housekeeper. I’m doing a part-time job just to save up some money while leveling up my skill and trying things that help me reach my desired job ( even though my dream jobs kinda saturated and competitive at,) . But i know that failing is not an option and so is trying , i will try to keep consistent with my routine and focus on what’s in the present ( family , friends ,..) . At the end , the money that we have is not only for ourselves but for everyone else , so i won’t neglect my surroundings just because of the JOBS . Wish you and everyone else the best ❤

Man even I've been unemployed since may this year 😢😢..this is really unbearable but parents just don't understand how hard it is 💔

Did you get a job in your field?

I got rejected from McDonald's in 2012. LOL'd and closed my laptop bwhahaha

Spending time with your family and parents now is very important. I am most happy when I'm spending time with my family.

Interesting story, and i thought i was the only person that had a struggling go get a job just keep moving forward, focus, and discipline!!

Very helpful and motivating…thanks 🙂

Sooo i graduate this past November and currently tutoring for chemistry and english (its not much but i can still buy Food with this), im waiting for a user interview rn, but ngl my motivation always feel like a roller coaster sometimes i can apply for like 15+ jobs and do something positive like relearning chemistry or try e-course but i can go 3+ days without applying for anything let alone Checking my email/linkedin, 2025 is gonna be hard but oh well we need to persevere right🥹🤲🏻

Keep going

Talking about how much you want a new phone shows your mindset. You will never get ahead in life with or without a job. Cut the junk, who cares about a phone. Find out what really matters in life

Great one 🔥

Unemployment is kind of scary but its really stressfree. You have a lot of time to think and figure out things to make some money on your own and yes having and open mind and changing the mindset is key. Thoughts lead to action. The more skills you learn the valuable you become and you can earn some money without needing a boss.

TBH honest your video editing good and im shook when u saw ur subscibers and likes buddy u deserve more ,

Dear Abdul, I have experienced being jobless and unmotivated at work. It was an engineering consultancy job which i hate. But, i took the guts to leave and entered a tech company ,mainly we use arduino uno, arduino mega and esp32 which i love the job. I think you hve to focus on your strength and your passion. I believebI share the exact similar passion with you. I was in your shoes before😮

What subject are you pursuing?!

have you considered selling your skills on fiverr? Start slow. Otherwise, try applying for a remote job in Europe. Most teams I know work internationally.

Sad 😔 same for me 🤦🏾‍♂️

hey mate, i understand it must be hard for you. one of the thing that actually works for me to defend myself from my own thoughts is actually exercising. exercising clears my mind, therefore i have the fuel to learn things that is related to my work even tho still being jobless. keep grinding and enjoy the process, ik you heard this before but dont stress is out.

I feel you and wish you all the best. I have also been on a difficult job hunt, but i'm trying to be more hopeful for 2025. <3 Subscribed!

Bro I am from Uzbekistan, came here in London 2022 to study My master's degree at 27 years. Completed in 2023 looking for a job as devops or cloud. And left only 1 year visa. Even if you don't have a job you're in such a prevented position not worrying about your visas. I ve seen your portfolios bro to be honest they are so basic. Just use chatgpt or other tools and make better design and something working useful. Good luck.

Thanks man

So, did you manage to get a job so far?

Thnk you so much , it really helped relativizing. My first semester was not the best , I often tended to compare myself to other people. However, I know I am capable of doing much better. This video trully gave me even more courage to continue and try to do my excellent as always, witht the help of others as well( as I tend I an only child) to often do things on my own. I am not incapable, I am not stupid, I simply need to understand the core difference between my past good grades and the ones I have currently. Have a delightful day, thank you again ;)

This is a lovely video. Thank you for sharing your experience. I am going through what you described. I just completed my masters and I am jobless. I undergo depression that lasts for several days and leaves me feeling demotivated. But you’re right, it’s so important to focus on building new skills and to keep pushing forward. Wishing you all the best in finding the perfect job. More power to you! 💪

Hi hope you are doing better, just wanted to comment to let you know the linkedin open to work thing you are meant to type in the title of jobs you are looking for instead of your current title. Anyway hope you can find the job you are interested in soon!

I'm 24, had to drop out of grad school due to mental health issues. I was an international grad student in the states. Right now I'm a 24 year old unemployed guy. I'm trying to make websites in exchange of some income. I'm about to get me first contract completed in about 2-3 weeks. If someone from the software industry is reading this please let me know whether I shall hustle in the design + front end market or not given the AI effect. Anyways, I just wanna say that it's really hard. My family is allowing me to stay with them but the stuff they say breaks me. Everyday, I just wanna do something so that I don't listen to what they say. Right not I'm completely out of money or else I swear I would have never stepped in this house.

It's crazy how many of us are in this position. We aren't alone in our situation. Just gotta persevere

Abdul personally i struggled with many of the negative thoughts you are going through and the mental health stuff. Honestly it really sounds like you are having signs of depression, go speak to your GP. I'm taking antidepressants and its not something to be ashamed off, it will help you get out of these spirals. From my experience right now applying to jobs in the UK. 1) Get as much work experience as you can during uni i.e summer internships, year out placements 2) You need to be flexible on both location and employer i.e apply to those golden big companies in the perfect city but know you are unlikely to get it as thousands are applying, take a look at other cities/ smaller companies 3) Dont just use linkedIn, Indeed, go to company websites directly 4) Go to careers fairs and NETWORK get their linkedIn this is the number one way to get a interview quicker 5) Look at Grad schemes not in your field lots are super interesting and as an engineer you are very employable. 6) Go to your unis old careers department and get them to check out your CV, cover letters and ask them for help on how to interview. 7) Software jobs are really dire at the moment especially for someone with no CS degree and no working experience, deffo do projects (not just basic tutorial stuff) and post on github. There are some companies that take on software roles without experience like dorset software, TPP (be seriously cautious this company has awful reviews, very degrading) , NHS grad scheme. 8) Right now you are actually in a perfect time to apply, all of the grad schemes are being advertised now (grad cracker). Rolling hires for entry level jobs are few and far to come by in the UK, grad schemes released between september and December are the way to go

Hey Abdul, I hope you have found your desired job; if not, then just a piece of advice; one of the mistakes I made was waiting for the perfect opportunity and job, and to be honest, it never came. So I would say, jump on to anything, forget what you studied for 4 years, and get whatever job you get. It might not build your professional career but it will certainly give you confidence in life and believe me, it will turn your life around

bro wtf this deserves soo Meany more views😭😭

brother u r already rich and here i am having survival crises everysingle day i'm alive cus my parents didn't kicked me our their house yesterday ....i dont even know for how long i have this miserable shelter with a life long miserable treatement i'm wasn't even allowed to have any career but i fortunately became their shitttiest daughter to prioritize myself over their unwashed dishes or floor ....even tho i did had a after school as a self taught engineer but coming from a non tech it wasn't paying me much moreover i had too much mental load that made me quite n lowered self esteemed i got into a cheap Masters in computer application degree again distanced open learning self tough with no curriculum firm syllabus or guidance i again ended up doin nothing productive now i'm much worse with 3 years of work gap and a useless college degree that didn't taught me much( tho i haven't got the degree yet but i'm done with all the activities) at this point i dont even have time to spend on learning new stuffs (which is extremely necessary tho) nor i have enough gutts to apply for jobs with this little knowledge ....i can't afford a low paying job it will bring be double headache with this family i badly wish to get a good paying job abroad only then i can survive happily but that currently seems impossible based on my skills ....help me 🥲😭 🔫

Man this job market is brutal😢..have you been able to get any job so far?

Im about to be in your situation Abdul we in this together

I looked at your CV on your website - I feel that it is inhibiting your chances. Look at Jake's resume template and update your CV to match that. There's no need to make it three pages long, make it concise to one page. You might think that your biomedical engineering degree is not relevant, but I think you should put that higher up to show that you've actually graduated from university (coding bootcamps help, but immediately demonstrating you're a university graduate would be good). Don't restrict yourself to web developer jobs, apply for all entry-level software engineering jobs. Have you reached out to the CareersHub at City University and asked them for help with job finding (they maybe able to help you even though you're an alumni)? I know it maybe a stretch but try reach out for unpaid internships with companies. Apply to software engineering consultancy firms. Even apply for civil service jobs and then try pivot your career from there. You have focused a lot on web development, but software engineering also includes a lot of focus on data structures and algorithms (try practicing leetcode and improving your knowledge). It is a competitive field but you have to remain steadfast and keep persisting. Once you land your first job, things will become a lot easier after that.

I know this is an old video but I was just in these exact shoes a few months ago(degree, no experience, can’t get a job). I was able to find a job at a job fair. Do whatever u can to get in front of recruiters in person is my best advice. If you are determined someone will give you a shot.

I also felt like losing momentum during covid. I think, as introverts, we actually rely heavily on getting forced to uni to interact and build connections

I am 26 too similar mistakes. Keep going we've got this. I have subscribed too

１９９８　ＨＥＲＥ　ＴＯ　ＬＩＫＥ　ＦＥＬＬＯＷＳ．

Transition into tech. The tech market is also tough but there are plenty of avenues - web3, web dev, devops. Look for apprenticeships too

Hey Abdul thanks for sharing your experiences, it’s nice hearing from real, relatable people. Not to say other UA-camrs aren’t genuine, but sometimes it feels like pandering with all the buzz words and clickbait. Also recently unemployed at 26 because I just quit my last job. I also did BME in college, worked in the field for a bit before switching to web development. Did it for the last 2 years, even working remotely, but finally left because I simply wasn’t happy with that job. You are not your career, and getting a job should not be the ultimate goal, I hate late stage capitalism. Saying this partly also for myself, as you said being jobless is not easy and it’s been taxing on my mental health too. But there are things to be grateful for every day, I appreciate your humble and positive outlook. Keep at it man!

I'm on the same boat: 26, looking for a job, used to work temporary as a nurse during the pandemic, and then from 2022 I've become jobless for over 2 years deciding where to go, now I decided to be a Frontend Developer, but marketing is harder these days to get hired even without a Degree. As my mom thinks I don't do enough (in which I do every single day), I feel pressured over her anxiety because I also had episodes of sadness, worry, crying due to the unemployment and I hate to see my mom comparing to me and my brother or someone else because I don't want any extra pressure. I know it hurts when unemployed so long, but it does matter that there's time left to recover from that. I don't even own a work book. Life's tough sometimes.

Hi Abdul, i'm in almost the same situation as you, the only difference is that i got a job early, but i've been laid off in September and since then, i couldn't get another job. Hope the best to us.

Hey dont give up. I stayed in schooling until I was 30. Got my first (crappy) job in the field as a 30 y.o. I didnt get a good full time job until I was like 33. When you are 25-6, you feel behind but you dont see how young you trully are and how much time you still have :)

Brother at least you live in London with opportunities there , I am finishing my degree at 25 after 8 years (A lot of things happend in these 8 Years ) of going to University ( Informatics Engineering Specialization of Software Engineering ) and now I am going through the market and it's disaster ... also sometimes I am thinking to do a Car mechanic school or something else I don't know ... I live in Greece and also the economic situation it's not the best ...

To sleep early. Just wake up 15 minutes earlier every day. It will be gradual and painless. Low light in the evening and much light in the morning etc.

The only safe jobs are in government and healthcare.

I had no career until 38. It sucks knowing I would have been financially independent by now.

Maybe you can start giving tuitions for highschool students or early university students from the subjects you were good at. It could bring you quick cash.

Hey Abdul, I'm 27 and just got into Universtiy of London BScCS. I'm unemployed as well and I was very fortunate to experience a full-time job at 24 years old before I got laid off in August. Don't give up Abdul, I emphasize with you because I am in the same position but without a degree from a university yet. I admire your courage to talk in front of the camera too. I have been thinking of doing the same, but I sometimes fear criticism too much from people I am close with.
